If everyone involved would please email or pm me your topographical features that would be nice :)
If you don't understand, i'm asking for where your mountains, rivers, cities, and essentially how you would like your country to appear from space ;)
Would those involved like this to be a very, very large image, that includes not only transportation systems, border conflicts, news roleplay, CoL, but also some of our info from our factbooks? I could put a little paragraph for everyone with some fun facts about their nation such as it's age, population, demographics, political system, etc.
So once two of you go to war or someone get's hit by a disaster we can see how it would evolve ;)

If you could also let me know what kind of transportation system you have that would be great. For instance, Michutopia is essentially a giant urbanized megapolis, so it has a huge array of public transportation that can branch out to all of my neighbors. Some of you might only have roads, or rail, or none at all.
Island nations have to let me know if they would like to be connected to the mainland by bridges or other forms.
NOTE: There will be a budget system. You put a certain amount of funds toward each of the sectors normally covered in the NS game, such as defence, welfare, healthcare, etc. This will affect how your nation is shaped in each update of the map.
Armies : Warfare will be based upon base placement and movement of troops. The amount of bases and troops will ultimately be determined by the budget, national policies, and population. The effectivness will be a simple algorithm based upon your number of troops vs their troops, and your budget vs theirs.
WMD's are illegal.
We must also come to a conclusion as to how everybody would like to start out. Should we all start equal and have at it or should it be based upon our nations existing populations?

Michutopia, if you've already put me on the map, then that's fine, but I'm currently working on a new map.

Millyland,
All i have right now are templates arranged with lots of changing ideas :) If you would like to work on a new map just send it over when it's done. I'm trying to get a rough draft of this map out by Friday so I can start explaining rules before the game starts.

How would I go about creating topographic features on my map ?
Thanks :)

You don't have to give me the final project you will see on your map, but notes as well as color-changes are great at expressing depth and changes in landscape.

I'm making mine, it's a cape corner with a provision for a surlaw peninsula. My map has topography and cities and transport, is that okay?

Wait so are we redoing the regional map and making new borders or just creating more detailed topographical maps of our nations with the current borders?

These two maps are separate; one is the standard map, used by any nation, this is a new one specifically for nations who sign-up, to participate in a special role-playing activity. You are now on the main Regional Map; you do not have to join this one if you don't want to.

Oh, OK. I'd be glad to join this map. What do you need? Just a map with infrastructure and natural symbols (Trees, Mountians etc.), or something else?

This map is only for role-play. This map is meant for making role-playing easier ;)

OK. So I think I understand the deal. I made a full total map and it didn't look good, so I made a Map with the most Major Cities and Roads (MAP I) and one with mountains and water (MAP II). Sorry about the obnoxious size... MAP I
 MAP II (Ignore the Cities on this map. Its only for natural purposes.)  |

You live in Brazil? Amazing! I've been to São José dos Campos for a university research project last year and I find it amazing how your country has developed the past several decades. I'm sure you'll have a bright future over there.
